Scientific Linux是重新编译的Red Hat Enterprise Linux，由费米国家加速器实验室和欧洲核研究组织（CERN）共同开发。尽管它旨在与Red Hat Enterprise Linux完全兼容，它也提供了上游产品中未收入的额外软件包，这当中最值得一提的是各种文件系统，包括Cluster Suite和Global File System（GFS）、FUSE、OpenAFS、Squashfs、Unionfs，以及对Intel无线固件的无线网络支持、MadWiFi和NDISwrapper、Sun Java及Java Development Kit（JDK）、轻量级的IceWM窗口管理器、面向统计计算的R语言环境，以及Alpine邮件客户端。
Troy Dawson has announced the availability of the fourth alpha release of Scientific
Linux 6, a distribution built by compiling source packages for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 6, but with extra applications that can be useful in
academic environments: "We have released the fourth
alpha of Scientific Linux 6. Changed since alpha 3: Red Hat logos change
- changed background, changed background on GDM, change KDM theme;
Plymouth change - generic (non-graphical) start-up now has blue instead
of red; packages added - OpenAFS 1.6.0, liveusb-creator 3.9.2. Known
issues: packages that haven't been built, and aren't in the release -
perl-Sys-Virt; if you install OpenAFS during the install, you do not get
the 'firstboot' screen that asks you which cell you want; we have not
put in any external repositories, such as EPEL or RPMforge, we expect to
add these when we move to beta." Here is the full release announcement. Download: SL-6-i386-DVD1.iso (4,261MB, SHA1), SL-6-x86_64-DVD1.iso (4,221MB, SHA1).
